Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Tucode: 3:15pm On Feb 11, 2020 |
Hello guys, I have been following this thread now and I have not seen anyone talk about Acura. Is it that the cars aren't good enough for our roads? I recently started taking note of the Acura Tsx and I am completely sold by our good looking and premium the car looks both exterior and interior. I have added it to the list of cars I will likely buy. But I really would love more info about the car and whether it is reliable, durable, and easy to maintain. It will be the first time I will be buying and owning a car. My top picks are Acura TSX 2006/07 Toyota Camry 2006 XLE Lexus ES 330 Honda Accord 2007 EX-L. Budget is around 2m for Toks only. I don't care much about speed. Looking out for Class, Reliability, Cost of Maintenance, Suitability with our roads (Benin City) and Aesthetics. I have fair knowledge about the camry and lexus and Honda already as they are quite common on our roads. I just need someone to give me more insight about the Acura and how it holds up with the others. Thanks. |

What do you guys think about 07 DC? |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 3:39pm On Feb 11, 2020 |
Tucode: TSX is a very luxurious Honda Accord Europe which is identical to Honda Accord North America. so you are basically buying an Honda Accord 4cylinder with more luxurious fitting 1 Like |

dljbd1: Don't use cheap oil in the transmission and steering. Engine seating gets damaged due to bad roads and causes vibrations, always replace with tokunbo or confam OEM, brand-new china still always have vibrations. At high mileage engine external seals go bad, replace when noticed to avoid oil shortage. Listen well to the legs to avoid pulling off in unexpected places. The radio screen gets spoilt easily due to position to sun. Above all nah confirm ride 1 Like |

Tucode: Buy a fully loaded ES330. It's the best of the lot. Or add something and get an IS250. https://www.nairaland.com/5660486/sharp-tokumbo-is250-clean-titled#86241207 There are plenty of deals like these. Due dilligence is required. 2 Likes |

radautoworks: What's your opinion on the 2006 Acura RL when compared to the 2005 ES330 and the 2005 Infiniti G35. Parameters: Luxury, comfort and high speed stability. |

radautoworks: Merci Madame |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 7:33pm On Feb 11, 2020 |
radautoworks: Sorry, maam, but the RL is a lot better built than the 05 G35. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Nobody: 8:58pm On Feb 11, 2020 |
HeavenlyBang: Agreed. The RL was like 20k dolls costlier than the G35. Has Acuras SH-AWD, Emergency braking system e.t.c. Put it against the Q45 and you may have a fair comparison. That G35 has got nothing on it. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by oride: 9:21pm On Feb 11, 2020 |
HeavenlyBang: I'm shocked. Is the build quality for the G35 that bad? |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by KINGreignn: 9:52pm On Feb 11, 2020 |
radautoworks:] The Lexus ES is more plush and comfortable than the infiniti G35/37 All are stable for their intended use. But the acura and infiniti are more sports oriented. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 11:00pm On Feb 11, 2020 |
rationalmind: Yep. It's just in the same class as the G. It's an E Class competitor in terms of luxury, I'd say. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 11:00pm On Feb 11, 2020 |
oride: The 05 G35 wasn't great. Got much better in 07+. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Tucode: 12:01am On Feb 12, 2020 |
[Thanks for the reply. But I want to know if it has similar or close enough maintenance cost, availability of parts and is it nearly rugged as the regular Honda Accord DC? I will be using it in Benin and Benin roads aren't the best actually. quote author=nurey post=86562555] TSX is a very luxurious Honda Accord Europe which is identical to Honda Accord North America. so you are basically buying an Honda Accord 4cylinder with more luxurious fitting[/quote] |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Tucode: 12:12am On Feb 12, 2020 |
Thanks for your reply. The Lexus is also the most pricy of the lot making it the least in my considerations. I am seriously considering the Acura but I just have not seen anyone to ask about the car and likely problems. It's the one my after my heart, just want to make sure it's not a problematic car considering that I don't see it on our roads enough. HeavenlyBang: |

Thanks. But would appreciate if you give me reasons. Have you used it before or know someone who has? radautoworks: |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 7:53am On Feb 12, 2020 |
Tucode: The Honda Accord Europe and Accord North America are identical in parts to a great %. The TSX is a luxurious European Accord. The only difference is the engine in the TSX is different from 4 cylinder in normal accords and has a higher HP. buy it parts are available. 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Tucode: 9:44am On Feb 12, 2020 |
Thanks sir, you've been helpful. But one more question please. Imagine budget is not a problem but you're a car novice who values stylish design but also conscious of cost of maintenance, and adaptability to our roads and you're to choose between the Honda Accord, Acura tsx and TL, which would you pick? Throwing in the TL to make things interesting. Thanks. nurey: |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 9:55am On Feb 12, 2020 |
Tucode: Acura TSX is my choice, more luxurious than the Accord and would give me a basic luxury and better fuel economy than the TL. Besides it less common on the road which would command more respect than Accord. I am not a gadget freek and I won't live in the car so I am comfortable with the DVD screen with rear camera and the steering wheel controls, all the other things the TL has better than TSX, I don't need them. 3 Likes |
